Benedict Choi, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, EMDR, IFS Informed
I bring into my practice 17 years of experience working with trauma and relationships. I work with people who have been deeply wounded and hurt in relationships. They often appear in the world as unsure about their worth and value. They are not sure that they can trust and rely on others. They might panic if people pull away too quickly or not allow themselves to get close from the start. They want to trust their gut more and feel a greater sense of security in their relationships. They want to be able to extend greater compassion and kindness towards themselves. My practice is a secure base from which we could explore all of the above and more. Current/past clients and colleagues have shared that I am collaborative, curious and calming. My aim is to slow things down to the pace where you can allow what is needed for you to emerge, to notice what you're wanting and to step more confidently out into the world.

Dr. Maxwell Rappoport
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and my goal is to make that step feel comfortable, productive, and worthwhile. I’m a clinical psychologist who believes meaningful progress happens when therapy feels like a genuine working relationship built on trust, openness, curiosity, and collaboration. I bring empathy, creativity, and a down-to-earth style to our work, adapting therapy to who you are rather than expecting you to fit a particular approach.
Clients often tell me they feel at ease with me quickly, which can make it easier to talk honestly about what isn’t working and understand the patterns that may be keeping them feeling trapped. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety or overthinking, relationship difficulties, performance pressure, unhealthy ways of coping, or simply feel that something in your life needs to change, we’ll work together to better understand what’s getting in the way and find practical ways forward.
I especially enjoy working with people who are thoughtful and curious about themselves but want more than insight alone. If you’re looking for therapy that is engaged, collaborative, and focused on helping you translate greater self-understanding into meaningful change, I’d be glad to connect and see if we’re a good fit.

Lisa Abrams-Misbeek
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Do you struggle with feeling disconnected from yourself and others? do you put your needs at the bottom of the to-do-list? Do you wonder if life should feel somehow better? Happier? Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers and their lives. Pushing away your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term issues for your mind and body. I believe it shouldn't be so hard to live a better life.

Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or ready for transformation but unsure where to begin, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Together, we will create a safe, nonjudgmental space to heal past wounds, regain confidence, and move forward with clarity and purpose, one step at a time.
